WITH PEACE HE WILL DESTROY MANY

Yes, everyone wants peace, and there has probably never been a time when so many false messiahs and so-called peacemakers have come to the front of the stage, proclaiming the change towards a new world order in which all humans will be treated fairly and with equality. Who would not want such a world? Barack Hussein Obama is doing this masterfully, reaching out to all religions, to the young and the old, the poor and the rich. 'No more walls of separation and discrimination,' he promised the crowds that gathered to hear him in Berlin, and thus he has continued, stretching out his hand to the whole Muslim world in Cairo, and later standing with the German chancellor, Angela Merkel, and Eli Wiesel at the horrendous site of Buchenwald, to proclaim that what was done there is not the way human beings should act. In his speech, Wiesel asked the question: has the world of today really changed and learned this lesson? Of course not. Continue reading → Related posts:

WHY THE HOLOCAUST?

Again and again, I hear people who are questioned about the holocaust say that there is no explanation for this terrible tragedy, which befell the Jewish people at the end of nearly 2000 years dispersion. How could God have allowed it? What was the reason and how can one still believe in a God Who apparently allowed such a disaster of such magnitude including the massacre of 1 ½ million children to take place in "christianised Europe."

First of all, let me hereby state that the Holocaust was prophesied about in the scriptures. That a terrible, terrible disaster would happen to the Jewish people just before they would return to their own land.

In Ezekiel we read the following verses:
The hand of the Lord came upon me and brought me out in the Spirit of the Lord, and set me down in the midst of the valley; and it was full of bones.
Then He caused me to pass by them all around, and behold, there were very many in the open valley; and indeed they were very dry. Then He said to me, "Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel. They indeed say, 'Our bones are dry, our hope is lost, and we ourselves are cut off!'
Therefore prophesy and say to them, 'Thus says the Lord God: "Behold, O My people, I will open your graves and cause you to come up from your graves, and bring you into the land of Israel. Then you shall know that I am the Lord, when I have opened your graves, O My people, and brought you up from your graves.
I will put My Spirit in you, and you shall live, and I will place you in your own land. Then you shall know that I, the Lord, have spoken it and performed it," says the Lord. (37:1,2,11-14)
